They could do what Norway does, paying for an almost membership that doesn't give them any voting rights.

Only apparently in the EU power circles nobody wants yet another "special deal" like Norway or (even worse) Switzerland.

Why not? Pay into the EU, adopt all EU laws, get one fishing or banking exception and no vote in laws. I'm all for it.

There's absolutely no chance of us getting a fishing exception. That was highly contentious when we were one of the big three EU countries. No way would they agree to that whilst also letting us back in after throwing all our toys out of the play pen.
